The Day My Nostalgia Died

The Day My Nostalgia Died

Ok, this movie was a trip. My memories of American Pie were definitely seen through the rose-colored lens of teenage nostalgia. Watching it now reveals that it doesn't hold up. This movie is not good. It's not the worst—though I have to admit, I'm a bit stunned by...
